It's election season in the UK, and the Green Party's policy document has been coming under scrutiny recently. In it is a desire to reduce copyright term to 14 years (not life + 14 years, but 14 years from publication).
Unsurprisingly, this has received a bit of a backlash from various parties.
There's no chance the Green Party will form the next government, so this is all academic, but is this a sensible idea? Are people overreacting?

Indeed - I completely agree.
I just realized that I must have skipped over your second-to-last sentence before I hit the reply button because you already stated everything I did in my post. My apologies...
